Special Registration needs
If you need to do any of the following, you will need to go the Enrollment Services Office for assistance:

register for a course overload

register for a course as an auditor

register for a course for which you have not met the pre-requisites

register for a course which requires special approval

register for two or more courses with the same course number but different titles

register for a course requiring an independent study form

College of Business majors may also see Diane Williamson, room 140, to register for an overload and register for College of Business courses which have unmet pre-requisites or require special approval.

Searching for Open ClassesYou must search on subject and part-of-term for summer.

It is best to search for open courses by using the Class Search screen from the Add/Drop Classes screen. You must select at least one subject to perform a search. Keep your search simple. Search on subject and one or two other search options only.

Search options information:Course Number is the four digit course number like ENGL 1101. Beginning time will list all courses which begin at the entered time or after. Courses for which you are already registered and are still open will display on the search list, but will not have the check box to the left of the course. The results of a search will display courses that could result in time conflicts with already registered courses. After selecting a course, click on the Register button to register for the course. Clicking on the Add to Worksheet button will not reserve a space in the class.

Error Messages - what they meanTime Conflict with 10670 - this course has a time conflict with a course already on your schedule, CRN 10670. Use the pull-down menu in the action field to drop the course causing the conflict, enter the new course CRN in the Add Class block, and click on Submit Changes.

Preq and Test Score-Error - this course has a pre-requisite which you have not met. You may seek special permission to add the course from the Chairperson of the Department teaching the course.

Closed Section - the enrollment in this course has reached its limit.

Major Restriction - only students with selected majors may register for this course. See the Department Chairperson if you wish to take this course as an elective or use it toward a minor.

Variable Credit hour classesBanweb will automatically register you for the least possible number of hours credit for courses which have a credit hour range. To change your hours credit, click on Change Class Options. Enter credit hours in whole numbers only. After changing hours credit for a course(s), you must click on View Fee Assessment or your fees will not be correct.

Courses which were dropped from your schedule, but not by using the WebThese are courses which were dropped from your schedule in the Registrar's Office or another administrative office. On the Web drop/add screen and on the Student Detail Schedule, these courses will display with zero credit hours and the date dropped. On the Student Schedule by Day and Time, these courses will display at the end of the matrix. These courses cannot be re-added on the Web - you must come to the Registrar's Office if you wish to re-add one of these courses.
